[PD] prevent opening of patches

[Ed Kelly]

That's useful, but up until recently you had to create a second instance of Pd from the command line anyway, since OSX would show you the instance you already had if you tried to open it from the operating system.

Or...have I missed the point? My friend and collaborator always needs two Pd's, one for Gemnotes and one for audio processing, to play my musioc...and we wrote a BASH script to launch the gemnotes one after the audio one was set up.
